Two weeks ago the County Superintend
ent OF Schools announced 20 directors that
he would supply, on demand, information
touching teachers who had attended the
County Institute, recommending these
teachers to the consideration Of directors.
II Is self-evldent that a teacher who, from
choice, attends these Institutes is better
qualified for the work than one who does
not not only because of the technical In
struction there received, but also because
he or she assuredly takes greater interest
In the work of teaching as a profession
rather than as q temporary mske-shift
The matter should be considered by dire'

The persistent booming Of Robert 7. LIN.
coin for president, on the ground that Abra'
ham Lincoln was his father, reminds me of
a Russian fable which will bear repeating
A peasant was driving some geese to market.
To hasten their speed, he used long switch,
Meeting traveller along the route, the geese
complained, thus please helpus unhappy
geese. This peasant whips us, and yet we
are not common geese. We are distinguished
indeed; but this ignorant fellow never thinv s
how he is bound to honor and respect us.
Why, stranger, we are descendants from the
very geese that once saved Rome and a
festival, aye, festival was established in
their honor"
The stranger listened and asked: &c For
what are yourselves distinguished You say
you are not common geese"
Because" clamored the flock, "because
our ancestors
Eyes, know about that but what
want to know is, what good have you done
yourselves
"Why," exclaimed the geese, "our an
cestors saved Rome"
"Yes, yes but what OF the kind have
you done?"

RAILWAY MATTERS.

THE RUMFoRD LEASE OF THE BOSTON AND
LOWELL TO THE BOSTON AND MAINE.
A special dispatch to the Journal from
Concord, N. H., says: The rumor of prob
able lease to the Boston and Maine railroad
of the Boston and Lowell corporation is
causing considerable comment in railroad
circles here, especially as it is understood
that the lease of the Boston, Concord and
Montreal and Northern Lines would be in
cluded in the transfer. Parties heavily in
terested in the Concord Railroad say that a
lease like the above would net affect them,
but they show much interest in the contem-
plated move. A large owner of Concord
stock, in discussing the matter Saturday
afternoon, did not express himself very
definitely, but left 1t plainly to be inferred
that the lease of the Lowell to the Maine
would be quite agreeable to the Concord
railroad, and that no friction between the
two corporations would be likely to follow.
As is well known, the relations between the
Maine and Concord railroads have been for
years of the most aimiable character
This weeks financial circular from Cord
ley IL Fuller says:
The excitement about the Maine-Lowell
lease shows no sign of abatement. As the
matter is now given to the public. il must be
a great help in unloading Central Massachu-
sets stock. There is no doubt that under
certain circumstances a per cent. lease of
the Lowell to the Maine could be
made profitable to the latter, but If the pre-
MUM of consolidation with Eastern has
got to be first paid, it would seem to us to be
paying pretty dear for the whistle. We
shall not be at all surprised to see this union
of conflicting interests finally brought about,
but cannot see the present value in Lowell
and Central Massachusetts stocks, even I'M
der the most favorable circumstances.

The Moose Driver and HIS Fortune.

Although Peter Leroyez, the man who had
the moose at the State Fair last year. has
come home from France with an Inheritance
of $4,000, he still lives in the Moosehead
Lake wilderness with his squaw, 40 miles
from any other human habitation. He is the
most eccentric capitalist in Maine.
Leroyez sprang from French family of
blood and property. A wild youth, hater
of civilization, he ran away from home, emf
grated to America, and finally went into the
woods on the border of Maine, where he
married an Indian woman and built him
rude hut, Here he dwelt for years in the
most primitive style, living on fish and game,
trapping fur-bearing animals, frolicing with
the moose that he adopted into his family,
and making occasional excursions into the
world, where his queer looks and costume,
his long hair and his strange ways made him
an object of wonder.
After he heard last fall that he had inher-
tied his fortune, he pledged his moose for
$500 to Mr., John Eveleth Greenville, and
with this money went to France after his
property. After coming back with the gold,
he redeemed the moose, and went directly
back into the wilderness to his squaw and
his old life. He sleeps on pretty nearly
$4,000 every night UP there under the pines,
40 miles from anybody. The only luxury in
which he has invested is new buckskin

SUBURBAN NEWS.
WILLARD.

Sunday evening last was an occasion of
much interest with the Sunday School of the
North Congregational church. Sometime
ago Prentiss Loring, Esq, of Portland of
fered two prizes to the members of the school
who should bring in the longest list of new
scholars. Sunday evening, with very full
attendance Of the school and its friends, the
prizes were awarded. Miss Emma Smith re-
ceived the first, beautiful copy of Milton
in tree calf. The second prize, fine illus
trated Pilgrims Progress" was given to
Willie E. Miller, the youngest of several
equal competitors. Their similar success as
well as their generosity in yielding their
offered reward to the younger of their num-
Der deserved, in Mr.. Loring's view, some
recognition and he generously added to the
Proctor to Miss Cora Thrasher, Child's
History of the Bible to Albert Brown and
large pictorial Pilgrims Progress to Ruthie
III. Millett.
The members of the school contributed
most creditably to the exercises of the hour
by responsive readings, recitations and
music.
The address of the evening was made by
Mr.. L0ring who spoke very inspiringly of
the work of the Sunday School and its aim
to bring all connected with it into full
Christian diScipleship.
The school has nearly doubled its member
ship since last autumn. The library has
recently received additions and has been
put in excellent condition for service. There
being no public library in this village, that
OF the Sunday School has special field for
usefulness.

Society Of Natural History.

Last evening Mr.. Henry NJ. Mailing of the
well known firm of Byron Greenough s. Co.
OF this city, gave an interesting narrative of
his visit to the Sandwich Islands in the
spring of 1886, and of his acfent to the vol
canic mountain Of Kileauea, which was
flowing at that time. The courses of many
of the lava streams of recent years were
well shown on the map of the mountain and
the frightful havoc made by the eruption
was well depicted by the lecturer.
Mr. Mailing visited about all the places of
interest in the larger island, including the
sugar plantations and native gardens, but
his remarks were mostly about the volcanic
mountains and their craters, the wild scenery
in the hills and the beautiful spots in the
valleys. His reference to the easy-going ma
tives and their funny ways were especially
taking with the audience
Mr. Fuller was at his best exhibiting thir-
ty-three photographs and maps illustrating
the lecturers remarks. He was also equal
to the emergency when his hydrogen gas
gave out. With but little delay he connect
ed a gas burner in the hall with his camera
lantern and the exhibition proceeded. The
hall was filled to Overlooking.
